KnightsOfKnee Posted September 22, 2007 Share Posted September 22, 2007 I would like to break this puppy in tomorrow. I think I want to smoke a Pork Loin. What do I need? How long does it take at what temp? Just have never done this before so..... First, Congrats. You are a wise man. Secondly, go throw some wood in it now and get it "seasoned". Thirdly, I've never smoked a loin, but that's the beauty with smokin - doesnt matter. Good general rules of thumb: don't break 225 degrees, 4-6 hour smoke is good for decently sized pork cut (don't put one rib on OR a whole pig on for 6 hours), serve sauce on the side because the rub you are going to make for it - grouped with your good apple, cherry, or pecan wood - is going to give all the flavor you'll want. Hope some of this helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atlanta Cracker Posted September 22, 2007 Share Posted September 22, 2007 Pork loin on the Big Green Egg takes about 1.5-2 hours per pound at 220 degrees. I would imagine that if you keep your temp. similar the time would be pretty close as well. One of the best things you can buy for smoking is a remote temperature gauge that reads smoker and meat temperature and transmits to a reciever you can bring inside. That way you don't have to walk out unless the temp is out of range or you need a beer! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
